According to the leak, the Skylake-EP Xeon E5-2699 V5 chip houses 32 cores and 64 threads. This is a pretty huge core count increase from the last generation.
This processor has a base clock of 2.10 GHz and it has a pretty PCB since it’s designed for the latest LGA 3647 socket.
The socket has been upgraded to feature
3647 pins that gives it the LGA 3647 name. The socket is surrounded by 12 DDR4 DIMM slots. This is due to support for next-generation hexa-channel memory and Intel’s Optane DIMMs for faster latency solutions.
